Still waiting for the sequel to the continuation of the story of Peter Parker in the Spiderman 4? Forget the past and peek at the Spider, a platform AMD's latest this.
AMD introduces new platform for the enthusiast, called Spider. Is it Spider?
All-AMD Platform
Spider is a platform that deserves to be called as All AMD platform. Using three compulsory components: AMD Phenom, AMD 7 series chipset, and graphics controller from AMD-ATI Radeon. He also loaded with the latest technology support. Call it like ATI PowerPlay, Cool'n'Quiet 2.0, DirectX 10.1, Hyper-Transport 3.0 and PCI Express 2.0. It is true if fi tour and the technology is not fully required by all people. That's why the launch of AMD's Spider is intended more for the enthusiast.
AMD Phenom
Using desktop processors AMD Phenom quad-core, design with quad-core processor in a die. Not two die dual-core CPUs are combined in one package. According to AMD, this design promises better performance, despite the recognized need greater production costs and a higher level of difficulty in production. Somehow it has made AMD has some limitations, among others, in presenting the CPU with high clock. Seen from the ranks of AMD Phenom processors are introduced to stage early. Available only with 2.2 GHz clock (AMD Phenom 9500) and 2.3 GHz (AMD Phenom 9600).

However, AMD is promising clocked to 3 GHz even more in 2008. AMD Phenom fi also has a variety of tours that promise. Call it like the use of a shared 2MB L3 cache (total for four cores). Phenom memory controller supports PC2-8500 (DDR2 1066 MHz), although standardization is DDR2-1066 still awaiting approval from the JEDEC. Armed with 128-bit fl oating point units (FPU), an increase branch prediction, and SSE4A. Use of HyperTransport 3.0 at Phenom promising to double the bandwidth compared HT 2.0. With a special note, this is only going to be optimized using a motherboard that supports HT3.0. However, Phenom also has backward compatibility with HT 2.0.
